Priyanka Chopra Recalls Missing Father In Hospital During Hustle

Speaking at the BRIDGE Summit in Abu Dhabi, the actress reflected on her mindset as a young performer and how her hunger for work defined her 20s. At the event, Priyanka candidly shared, “When I first started working, I was not selective at all. Whatever work I would get, I would do because it’s a privilege to just get work… I would say yes to everything. I was really greedy in my 20s. I wanted to work every day.”

Now a celebrated name in both Bollywood and Hollywood, Priyanka acknowledged that her ability to be selective today is a privilege earned through years of sacrifice. She credited her discipline and work ethic as the foundation of her global success, adding that her younger self had to push relentlessly to create opportunities that didn’t come easily.

She further explained how personal milestones often took a backseat to professional commitments. “Now Beyoncé said this, and I’m going to quote her. I feel like I’m on the other side of my sacrifice. I worked really hard. I missed birthdays. I missed when my father was in the hospital… I missed Christmases, I missed Diwali. I missed time with my family… That time, I needed to work that hard. And that 20-year-old me needed to make those sacrifices for this woman to have the life that I have now.”
